Echinopsis densispina, is a species of Echinopsis found in Argentina.[2]

Description

Echinopsis densispina grows singly. The egg-shaped, grey-green to dark green shoots reach heights of growth of up to 8 centimeters with a diameter of 5.5 centimetres. There are about 17 notched ribs divided into tubercles. The yellowish-white areoles located on them are sometimes sunken and are up to 0.5 centimeters apart. The four to seven light to dark brown central spines are tipped darker. They are straight to slightly curved and thickened at their base. The central spines are either 1.5 to 2 centimeters long or much shorter and inconspicuous. The 16 to 22 whitish, bristle-like, flexible radial spines are spread and have a length of 0.6 to 0.8 centimeters.

The short and broad, funnel-shaped, yellow to orange flowers are up to 8.5 centimeters long[3]
